Does anyone have recommendations for ultra quiet heatsink/fan on AMD XP processors? I know that somehow quiet and cooling CPU doesn't really make sense, but I don't overclock and I'm looking for something to quiet the room down... Do most people buy heatsink/fan combos or buy them separately? If so, which ones to get?

I have the Thermalright SK-6 with 80mm Panaflo. I can't even tell that my computer is on. Well except for the PSU fan.

Get a heatsink that uses a 80mm fan like the Alpha 8045 or the AX-7. You didn't say how fast of a cpu you are useing but a YS Tech 48.5 cfm fan does not make that much noise and if you are running a slower cpu you may be able to use a L1A or M1a Panaflo fan which make next to no noise.
